A Dreamy and Romantic Transition to Fall with Levi’s x GUIZIO
Danielle Guizio teams up with Levi’s® for a classic yet chic denim capsule collection to close out Summer
For Danielle Guizio, denim was always a part of the creative journey that got her to where she is now—specifically Levi’s jeans. Having spent nights on end distressing and repurposing vintage Levi’s in her tiny office after dropping out of fashion school, Guizio basically manifested a collaboration with Levi’s. Little did she know that almost a decade later, the New York-based designer can proudly say everything she has worked for has finally paid off.
Today marks the launch of the upcycled collection of the summer: Levi’s® x Guizio. Trusted for innovation, quality, and performance, Levi’s® denim is the ultimate blank canvas for countless designs and interpretations. Combining Guizio’s signature romantic details and form-fitting silhouettes mixed with Levi’s® iconic denim creates the perfect balance of elegance, romance, and comfort.
“This collection is very meaningful to me. It symbolizes something I’ve been working toward for years. It symbolizes growth and hard work.” Guizio states. “The garments themselves tell a story of celebrating the sacristy of women and embracing the divine feminine that is. The polarity of the denim fitted corsets and baggy oversized fit denim showcase the versatile elements to our modern-day women.”
Like her early styling days, Guizio’s ambition for the collection was to bring together the more sensual femininity of her designs with the rugged American spirit of Levi’s® denim. The collection consists of 6 pieces; a denim corset with a lace-up back, an ultra-cropped flare-sleeved denim jacket, and two denim mini-skirts exclusive to GUIZIO—one with hand-distressing and one with a subtle floral print.
Perhaps the stars of the collection are the two pairs of jeans; a classically inspired baggy relaxed-fit denim pair and a super skinny low-rise pair with flared hems. Each piece in the collection comes in mid-wash indigo and features one of two co-branded Levi’s® x GUIZIO back patches in either paper or leather.
The Levi’s® x GUIZIO collection is now live on the Levi’s App, on Levi’s website and danielleguizio.com
